It's never easy to say goodbye
To the faces
So rarely do we see another one
So close and so long

    @drmn, it's an idiom insofar as it's made up by bill, it's an idiom in his world. i think it's just a fairly poetic way of rephrasing "the journey is more important than the destination"

    every lyric in this song holds such weight and is so beautiful but this is one my favorite lines: "i kept hoping for one more question, or for someone to say, 'who do you think you are?' so i could tell them." i'm drunk and listening along with the lyric sheet from my vinyl copy and it's rewarding or something. does anyone know how to make a turntables needle quit sticking

    This went from being my song of the year last year to being one of my favorite songs ever.

    Song of the year off the album of the year, and it's not even close. How he opened his live shows this year with this gem....goosebumps, tears, the whole package.

    to me it means that you'll go all the lenghts needed and even more just to feel something very special that would make you feel as a whole person again. or atleast that's what the song does to me

    what does "riding for the feeling" mean? is it an idiom, or is it literally the act of riding in order to feel something specific?
